Improved sync script #3
Description
Hi again @DominiqueMakowski
I have put some effort into improving the original dmnemec /
copy_file_to_another_repo_action script by creating a while loop
that iterates the input files/folders.
That way you can use 2 folders as source.
Other fixes are changing actions/checkout@v2 to actions/checkout@v3
as v2 is deprecated.
Also added delete_existing: true [optional] that deletes all the existing files in the destination folder before copying over the new files, that way
the destination will always be identical to the source.
You can check out my repo here, Here's an example script:
on:
push:
branches:
- master
name: ⏫ Copy content to REBEL
jobs:
copy-file:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- name: Checkout
uses: actions/checkout@v3
# Copy the 'post' & 'publication' folders
- name: Push posts & publications
uses: dobbelina/copy_file_to_another_repo_action@main
env:
API_TOKEN_GITHUB: ${{ secrets.API_TOKEN_GITHUB }}
with:
source_file: "content/post/,content/publication/" # Folders to copy
destination_repo: "RealityBending/RealityBending.github.io" # Target repo
destination_folder: "content/" # Folder where to copy it
